Waterford Crystal has been a staple at society dinner parties since the American Revolutionary War.
From champagne glasses to sparkly accessories, the brand has long been synonymous with sophisticated luxury. It has graced the tables of everyone from British aristocrats to the Real Housewives, but if you’ve ever seen the Wars of the Roses, you know it’s what you buy when you can’t afford the best.
Now, thanks to an entertaining house advertising campaign, the brand might even be sold at Target.
This photo nearly broke my phone screen while I was looking for a wedding gift. It’s not because she’s black, it’s because of everything else. Nothing says timeless elegance like a fat, balding woman wearing a tight, revealing outfit that is neither appropriate for her age nor her shape.
The group photo is even worse. Who are these people? Is this a “where are they” photo of kids posing for an illustration in a middle school science textbook? Only the Muslim girl in the wheelchair is missing.
What a weird bunch of hipsters and misfits. I can only guess as to their gender, just like you. There’s no way they’re Waterford’s main customer. The people drinking their beer out of crystal glasses are stuffy old Connecticut WASPs, despite what the brand would hate to admit.
I was planning on saving money on this wedding, but now it looks like I’m going to have to spend money on Baccarat.
